I often get asked this exact question, so in order to never have to repeat myself again, i will list all the (in my eyes) negative changes here: - Game got censored (99% of spilled blood was changed into purple mist) - Completely censored Cutscenes - Reduced enemy count - Increased enemy damage - Increased enemy health - Increased enemy delimb resistance - Reduced enemy aggression - Reduced enemy IS throwing - Addition of one hit kill grabs on MN from all bosses and most enemies to compensate for the lower enemy count and easier difficulty - Changed weapon upgrade system (upgrades are for free and the game mandates when and to what lvl the player can upgrade. Infuriating) - Easier game overall (most of the fights were deleted or altered, f.e. Sigma 2 on Master Ninja starts with 5 grey Ninja instead of 5 IS Ninja, CH 11 lacks the first 6 fights ENTIRELY, more save points / shops were added, and more). After some research, we found that the enemies were cut by 2/3. Enemy count in Vanilla 2: 4300-4600. Enemy count in Sigma 2: 1550. Simply pathetic - Removal of all water combat (cannot fight the Water Dragon on water in Sigma 2) - No NG+ anymore (original had 2 different NG+ modes) - Cut (or exchanged) Bosses - Easier and slower bosses - Ability to Izuna Drop Genshin (destroys the entire bossfight) - Removed the ability to counter strong attacks (f.e. Genshin's Haze Straight Slash and his FS, or Mechs) - Removal or Incendiary Shuriken, Windmill Shuriken and Underwater Gatling Gun - Removal of Bow UTs - Unlimited Arrows and addition of a gun to compensate for the lack of Bow UTs - The Bow has an autoaim system now (the autoaim is completely broken and does not work and aims at all kinds of things sometimes, and manual aim does not work correctly as well, the bow snaps to things or simply does not even let the player change targets sometimes) - Addition of 3 Mandatory Female Chapters (HORRIBLE) - Game forces life / Ki upgrades on pickup (when u pick up a Spirit of the Devils or a Life of the thousand Gods, then the game uses it automatically and robs u of the choice of when (or if) to use it). Also, those upgrades do not refill health or ki anymore - Even tho Chapter Challenge was added, it reduced the max Ki slot count to 5 instead of 10 and is in general no replacement for a proper NG+ mode - Removal of all keys / keycards in the game, including all lore that came with them, as well as having all doors already opened for the player - Increased in-game loading times (when opening chests, change weapons, etc) - Guillotine Throw is not a 100% delimb anymore, and performing a Flying Swallow on in air / crawling enemies is not a 100% insta kill anymore - The Izuna Drop is in Ryus arsenal from the start with a lvl 1 sword (as well as all other lvl 1 weapons) making an already easier Master Ninja mode even MORE easy - Logically, the Izuna Drop does not enough damage anymore to kill some of the lesser Ninjas - Removed the ability to shoot 2 arrows in the air after a normal jump - Heavenly Justice is not moving towards the attacked enemy when performed without directional input, making the followups clunky or wiff entirely - Removed the ability to turn the camera during an Izunda Drop and during all "Rope" shimmy sections - Removed the ability to switch between free and locked on cam during bossfights. It is always on lock on now. Pure retardation - Removed the ability to switch between manual save slots and autosaving (seperate slots). The game will always autosave at statues and the player can only manually save after a chapter. Furthermore, all difficulties in story mode share a single autosave, and in chapter challenge each chapter has its own autosave, tho again only one for all difficulties. What a horrible decision... - Removed the ability to turn the camera while casting Ninpo without actually aiming the Ninpo. Both sticks aim Ninpo now (in the original, the left stick aimed the Ninpo, the right stick only turned the camera) - Bosses like the Blind Giant or Rasetsu will be obliterated with both a light and strong attack now... Before, only a strong attack would OT them... They cannot be killed any other way. A very bad change to combat - All Tests of Valor have been removed - I cannot believe i am saying this now, but - there is an invisible object / wall in the arena of the first Zedonius fight - Removed the ability to immediately run on the surface of water when jumping on it from "too high up" - Some weapons were nerfed (f.e. Talons ->Y has a lower delimb rate now, the Scythe's damage was nerfed so hard, it feels like a wet noodle, probably to make the Enma's Fang the default heavy weapon, etc) - Incendiary Shuriken that actively stick to Ryu during a UT charge will NOT stun him. they are basically cotton balls now - Weapons / LotG, LottG / SotD that were not picked up cannot be bought at Muramasa in the following chapter - LINK FOR FULL LIST [NG II vs Sigma 2](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujkB_DkAgL0)

- With the exception of Chapter 1, the game is easier overall, with some encounters missing, some encounters having less enemies and Nicchae not even having adds on Master Ninja. Furthermore, more save statues and shops were added. - Removed the ability to double throw Incendiary Shuriken after a walljump - Removed the ability to cast Ninpo back to back, there is a small cooldown now - Haze Straight Slash has no armor frames anymore - The dodge system got altered and Ryu does not face the direction he is rolling in anymore when in combat. The backflip even has less iframes than the regular dodge, making it effectively worse. - Plasma Saber is buggy and does not do the same damage to the emperor as the True Dragon Sword - Clones can not be punished with Dabi (or DDB) XY anymore, they also dodge the Guillotine Throw now. - Awakened Alma has no hitbox on her lower body, making Ryu do in air Y instead of FS. - The interact button is B now, making the player waste projectile weapons all the time when trying to interact - 3 Rachel chapters have been added. Absolutely horrible and boring. - inferno does not knock down Horsemen anymore - Muramasa now automatically steals Ryus Scarabs and just gives out rewards. There is no way to strategically use the Scarabs and the rewards just get thrown away if Ryu is full - Flail Ripping Thunder has been nerfed so hard that the strongest move is XYY now, making the upgrade completely useless in terms of gaining stronger moves... Moronic on so many levels... - Fire worm has been exchanged with a tripple fire worm fight, and his puzzle area got deleted completely - All puzzles have been removed - The Pyramid got removed and a tripple Berserker fight is in its place - Berserkers are not passive off cam anymore, but all of their startup attacks are weak attacks now that Ryu can counter, making them into the easiest enemy in the whole game. - Ogres guard crush on every weapon swing now, making guard resets useless - Cannot guard reset Doku anymore, he will wiff on 3rd hit and then just hit Ryu for full damage no matter if you guard reset - Spikes were aded to the underwater tunnels, making a debatable boring/chill section to a very annoying one - The red eye room has been completely trivialized by filling it with water and removing the spike ball pendulums. Furthermore, the buttons can just be pressed without killing the zombies first. - The Bow controls ave been changed from simple 2 buttons to overcomplicated 4 buttons and Ryu can not dodge/block out of the first person aim anymore. A crosshair was added as well. A very ugly one at that. - Alternator boss (a horrible Dynamo clone) has been added - every area transition stops the game mid movement and is NOW LOADING - The red glow of the Kitetsu got removed - Cutscenes in Chapter 13 are broken, and some cutscenes in the game glicth out and are randomly unskippable
